mass storage needs access rights set up to specific mac or i.p. for security reasons
if your using open software like OpenWrt you can also configure virtual lans

Unfortunately I cannot modify these settings on the Comcast modem or at least I have not figured out how to do this on the version modem that I have

I use a 24 port network switch and only one Ethernet cable going to the router. Everything gets plugged into the switch and let the router do the DHCP.
Not sure what your NAS problem is, but mine works fine (Synology). What you don't want to do is to cheap out on ports on the switch and have multiple smaller switches on the router itself. That creates a ton of extra data traffic and maybe even loops and slows the network down considerably.

I am buying a used one to try it out and see if this work better than the way I have it now

My question is should I get a router that has both POE and non POE is there advantages over just getting a POE router

Depends on how many POE devices you want to use really - there's no difference other than being able to power devices over ethernet. POE switches tend to cost more than the non POE equivalent.
